A Place To Bury Strangers/The Big Pink

The Big Pink - Robbie Furze #2
Robbie Furze

The Big Pink was on tour with A Place To Bury Strangers as openers when they came through Lawrence Kansas and performed at The Bottleneck. I love APTBS and had only heard a few songs by The Big Pink but I was pleasantly surprised by their live set. First off APTBS melted everyone's faces off as openers playing songs from their most recent album, "Exploding Head". They are great guys and fun to drink with. The Big Pink was very impressive live, I almost preferred their raw live sound to their recorded album,"A Brief History Of Love". Out of all the concerts I've shot in 2010 this was my favourite so far. Both great live bands and very nice people.

Flogging Molly

Flogging Molly #1


Flogging Molly played at The Uptown Theater on St.Patrick's Day Weekend. This was the most crowded show I've shot at this theater. Somehow about 500 people over capacity filed in. Flogging Molly put on a lively show to say the least.

Photos from the great live band, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. I took these from their recent "Beat The Devil's Tattoo" tour in St. Louis. Pete and Rob played an acoustic show earlier in the day for about fifty lucky fans.

AC/DC live and in concert! Rumored to be the last American tour. I was limited to two songs and I was one foot in front of a T stage to the left. I would have liked to be able to get straight head on shots, but I was permitted to walk in a four foot area. Better than nothing! Still got a few decent shots.
